this was 'rooted in the work of the Nike Foundation' & seems a potent demonstration of a brand using its power and talents to not only do good in the world but challenge the prevailing culture of pessimism and lack of spirit and imagination

a comment from a friend of mine more closely connected with the whole thing:

"ah.. saw this in betaphase.. based on 'uncle' yunus's grameen bank/microfinance... women only get those loans.. the woman who chairs girl effect is also prime mover on microcredit/microfinance north america.. trust a brand to nick the idea

whatever

girl being easier to push than 'woman'"
